You do realize that this is: label: while(condition) {
    break label;
} As a C programmer this confuses me to no end. When I see "label:" I expect control to end up there and the loop to be executed again. I realize all the Java folks have gotten used to this, but I don't think I ever will.

Yes, but it's quite obvious to me if I replace the labeled break with break 1; I'd expect continue label; to step into the loop again. By the way, +0 does not mean -1 for goto. Regards, -- Michael - <mike(@)php.net> http://dev.iworks.at/ext-http/http-functions.html.gz
